question about digestion. too quick?

I have about 2-4 bowel movements per day generally depending on how much I eat.

I ate only 2 very small oranges yesterday and had a very small bowel movement later.
The next meal was today roughly after about 24 hours. It was about 2kg mono meal of kiwis. And I had a bowel movement about 4-5 hours later and to my surprise it was green and had some kiwi seeds. I don't drink or snack between meals. Shouldn't it digest a bit slower? Is it a good or bad sign?

Digestive systems vary. In general (my opinion) the faster the better. So you are good! No worries eh? What are you going to do....NOT eat kiwi because it shoots through you too quickly? LOL. As long as it stays sub-sonic......you can avoid the boom.

Thats great !
I agree with DZM, not to worry.
Fruit digests quickly and has good natural un-cooked fiber. If your GI tract is open and clear the food can move right through. The un-cooked fiber gives the peristalsis something to get a hold of, unlike cooked fiber that has been turned to mush like for example a cooked carrot. Think of those people who don't move something through for days - their all backed up and absorbing toxins from the waste the entire time.
